It’s 4am and I had a few things I could write here, but I’m not really sure which is best or hasn’t been said before.

So instead I will talk about this thing outside my window.
Basically I can’t see any stars tonight, but there’s this one bright light floating there.
Can’t tell if it’s just a bright star, seems unlikely.
A planet, seems more likely.
Or something that’s on someone’s roof over the road. No idea.

Tis a mystery.

Immortal Dreamer hasn’t been translating for a long time now, but I still haven’t updated the template to have Aoi’s name in the translator slot and have to manually correct it every chapter.

You’d think for someone who hates putting in effort like me I would have done that by now but changing the template is effort in its own right.

The best person for the job finds the easiest way of doing it.
That is not me.

Commissioning art is really hit or miss. I mentioned a while back that I messaged someone about getting some done but they ended up being full currently, and the second person has decided to close their commissions to focus on other things now which basically means I need to find someone else.
But I chose those first two based on their price-quality ratio.
Everyone else is either cheaper with lower quality or more expensive with superior quality.

Any suggestions folks?

So eventually my PC is going to get fixed and then I’m going to start streaming again but then one of my friends offered to make some stream overlay stuff and transition cards among other things.
But problem is I don’t know what style to go for.
What sort of style?

The only thing that comes to mind is like…techy? I dunno.
Quick gimme ideas! Maybe I could use the outline of the FGO servant cards for the webcam border?
I dunno.
Send creativity!

My computer part will be coming soon…I hope…probably…
I want to get back to streaming…
And playing games…
Please dear universe.

Also Sword Art Online was pretty great this latest episode. I loved this part of the novels so I hope the next two episodes to it all justice, including the foreshadowing and sort of side story events that happen regarding other things.
I wonder how it will go.

So as expected I am very tired. Well staying up all night after getting up early to watch the Hololive EN debuts would do that, I actually overslept until dinner and barely made it for my weekly RPG sessions. Which by the way you should go and watch on the twitch channel hint_plays which I haven’t totally linked here for any reason at all.

This week we were playing Crimson Skies. Stuff happened. It was pretty fun.
Planes are cool.
That is all.

I think everyone over at ReLibrary is starting to get tired.
Fana is tired with fixing server stuff to get that all prepped for changeover.
Silva is tired of micromanaging translators.
Aoi is tired of typing “Word Count” so many times he’s resorted to “—“.
And I’m tired because it’s 5am.

Huh.
Why do I feel out of place there.

I hoped nobody awakened any new preferences last chapter.
I don’t want to be held responsible.
If you really must try it out make sure it’s done with consent okay?

Anyway moving on to todays chapter that I totally didn’t almost forget to schedule.

My replacement computer part is STILL in America.
Curse you pandemic shipping delays.
I find it really funny though because it keeps going back and forth between Ohio and Kentucky.
I forgot Kentucky was a real state.
You only ever encounter that word in KFC over here in the UK.

The adventures of Dungeons and Dragons continued today…
Lucien was useless.
It was the first major fight against evil, my heroic knight should have shined!
But he missed BOTH attacks and then the rogue backstabbed the sucker and he fell flat dead.

Remember to join me every Sunday for likewise adventures of uselessness on the Hint_Plays twitch channel.
We currently play three different games every Sunday on rotation.
I currently participate in Swords of Slaughterdeep (which is AD&D) and Crimson Skies: Tales of Bad Debt (which is a sort of homebrewed Savage Worlds).

Recently, as a result of my laptop usage and lack of gaming I have been sitting in my chair a different way than usual.
This is because I normally lean on one of the arms of the chair while gaming, however sit in the chair straight when typing. As I have been typing almost exclusively this has led to the way I sit changing…and as a result my back freaking hurts!
Damn it hurts!
It’s basically always hunched because this chair sucks and I have to sit that way to type!

Ah man this is awful.

Also this chapter is uhm….prime .5 material.

So thanks to Fana, the newly crowned Queen of ReLibrary, the entire website has no moved to a dedicated superfast server! Or something like that.
I’m not really sure what that means to be honest!
It might reduce loading times…

But that also requires Silva to fix the nightmare mess of plugins this website actually uses so who knows!
Well I certainly don’t know!
But it’s cool none the less!

It’s 5am. It’s so late.
So following on from the earlier news of Aloe retiring.
I decided to buy the 5th Gen shirt just to commemorate her existence.
Although it’s sad to see her go, at least there is some small record of her presence.

Moreover they’re going to be the only merchandise Aloe ever partakes in.
Who knows if the internet will archive her streams.
Ah this is making me sad again.

Also sorry about the random chapter ping. I forgot to change the month on the scheduling and accidentally scheduled for the 1st of August instead of September. Doh.

So Mano Aloe has formally retired from Hololive 5th Gen after a two week suspension.
I really feel sorry for the girl after making it through those auditions to lose her spot because some prats on the internet doxxed her.
I really hope she can recover and find something else in life. Or else this will become a painful stabbing regret for her.

Also to those internet people. I hate you.
